 3. Arkansas gets revenge against Auburn

The Razorbacks are 1-1 in October at this point. They got a breakthrough win against South Carolina and got punched in the mouth against Alabama, which makes them want to fight that much harder.

As they feel that fighting spirit and want to taste victory again more than ever, Arkansas looks at the schedule and feelings of emotions come back. Embarrassment, memories of a  record-breaking defeat and most of all anger come flooding back. Auburn is coming and Arkansas is ready.

Last season, the Auburn Tigers destroyed Arkansas 56-3 and did it in such an embarrassing way. The Tigers would line up, essentially yell that they were running it, say where it was going and then do it without ever being touched.

This season, however, Arkansas is hosting Auburn and with them coming, comes my 3rd prediction for Arkansas’ October. Bret Bielema will use the win of week one and the loss of week two to catapult Arkansas to do something I personally thought would be impossible. Beat Auburn.

My prediction is that Arkansas bounces back and when they host Auburn, it’s going to be the Razorbacks version of the Red Wedding from Game of Thrones. Auburn will see it as no problem and when they get into D.W.R.R.S, Arkansas will be ready to exact revenge on them and beat them to head into the final week of October.
